Apt Adages 4 (Guess which saying goes for the following)?!
Question: 1. I was telling my dad about Lendon Best the other day, & he interjected that he had met him before
2. Todd has been losing his hair. He lost exactly one ounce of hair last month, & Josh simultaneously grew an ounce of hair during the same time period.
3. Bob was riding through the woods on his way to town to purchase some supplies, including a nail. During the ride, his shoe fell off. He dismounted to retrieve the shoe, & his horse ran away. He ran after the horse, only to find that he had become lost in the woods.
4. As Bob was trying to find his way out of the woods, he grabbed a twig & bent it out of frustration. Suddenly, a tree next to him grew several inches.
5. Bob was so surprised at the fast growing tree that he began to rub his hand on a large oak tree. The tree suddenly fell over, as did several oak trees near it.
